MOOSE JAW, Sask.<\/b> – In less than a season with the team, Chase Wutzke\u2019s professionalism and confidence played an integral part in the Warriors’ chase to the 2026 WHL playoffs.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201c[Chase\u2019s] hockey sense allows him to anticipate plays to put himself in good positions, and his athleticism and competitiveness allow him to make hard saves look routine,\u201d said Head Coach Mark O\u2019Leary. \u201cGoing into every game, Chase gives you a chance to win.\u201d\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Wutzke was acquired from the Red Deer Rebels as part of a blockbuster trade in November, with the Warriors sending six draft picks to the Rebels, including their 2026 first-round pick for Wutzke and a 2026 second-round pick.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cI\u2019m a confident guy, so I bring a lot of confidence to a team,\u201d said Wutzke. \u201cThere are a lot of young guys on this team who look up to you, and you have to build off that.\u201d\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

In 38 games with the Warriors this season, Wutzke posted a 13-19-3-1 record with a 3.47 goals against average and a career-high save percentage of .906.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cYou go into battle with your brothers every night,\u201d said Wutzke. \u201cI think the fans saw the boys really take it hard, but hopefully it brings them back better and bigger next year.\u201d\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

After the Warriors\u2019 last game, Wutzke was recalled by the Minnesota Wild organization and made his first pro start with the ECHL Iowa Heartlanders. In six games with the Heartlanders, Wutkze owned a 2-1-1 record with a 2.98 goals against average and a save percentage of .898. After the Heartlanders’ season ended, Wutzke was assigned to the Minnesota Wild for their Stanley Cup Playoff run.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

TRENCIN, Svk.<\/b> – <\/b>The Moose Jaw Warriors will have two representatives at the 2026 IIHF U18 World Championship. Head Coach Mark O\u2019Leary will serve as an Assistant Coach for Team Canada, and import-rookie forward Jan Trefny will represent Team Czechia.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

As a member of the Warriors coaching staff since 2012, O\u2019Leary has posted a 191-187-23-14 record since taking over as Head Coach in the 2019-2020 season. He is the franchise\u2019s leader in both games coached and games won.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Speaking to Discover Moose Jaw\u2019s Avery LeBlanc, O\u2019Leary said, \u201c<\/span>I don\u2019t want to come back the same coach I was when I left. This is an opportunity to grow and learn.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

O\u2019Leary last represented Canada as Head Coach of U17 Team Canada Black at the 2022-2023 U17 World Hockey Championship.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

This is also not the first time Jan Trefny has represented his home country. Trefny was named to Team Czechia for last summer\u2019s Hlinka Gretzky Cup, where the team posted a 2-2 record. In four games, Trefny notched an assist and was named player of the game in the team\u2019s loss to the Canadians. In 60 games with the Warriors this season, Trefny potted 3 goals and 14 points. His first WHL goal came back in October.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cI was trying to find myself at the start [of the season],\u201d said Trefny. \u201cAt the end, I think [my game] was much better, so I\u2019m happy with [where my game ended up], and I\u2019m excited for next season.\u201d\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Trefny and Team Czechia kick off their campaign on Wednesday, taking on the United States. Puck drop is scheduled for 8 am CST. O\u2019Leary and Team Canada will open their tournament at 10 am CST against the host team.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

MOOSE JAW, Sask. <\/b>– After his sophomore season, Riley Thorpe hopes to take another step this offseason as he heads into his third year in the Western Hockey League.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cRiley has a great combination of skating and puck skills that produced some highlight reel goals,\u201d said Head Coach Mark O\u2019Leary. \u201cWe expect him to be a guy that we lean on in big moments and a key contributor in our top six forward group next year.\u201d\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

In 67 games this season, Thorpe tallied a career high 16 goals and 37 points. Thorpe also dressed as a member of Team East at the 2026 WHL Prospects Showcase in February.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cI think growing my game offensively and defensively,\u201d said Thorpe. \u201cIf this team wants to go far, I need to be at my best. I think I need to be not only producing but also defending.\u201d\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Thorpe notes that battling adversity throughout the season builds character for the team.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cEveryone wants to win, us, Moose Jaw as a whole, we want to see this team do well,\u201d said Thorpe. \u201cWhen you lose two seasons in a row, it’s pretty tough, but you don\u2019t want to feel that a third time.

MOOSE JAW, Sask.<\/b> – As one of the youngest players on the Warriors\u2019 roster this season, rookie defenceman Colt Carter made a name for himself right from the first puck drop.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cAt only 16, Colt has shown a real professional approach to the game,\u201d said Head Coach Mark O\u2019Leary. \u201cHe has the hockey sense, agility, and puck skills that are going to make him a real fun player to watch, and his character makes him an absolute pleasure to coach.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

Carter\u2019s first goal came in his season debut, back on September 19. His second goal came the next night, and his third goal found the back of the net in his third game of the season just a week later.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Carter\u2019s blistering scoring pace set him up to be the team\u2019s Rookie of the Year at the annual Awards Night and earned him the honours of the second-highest scoring 16-year-old defenceman in franchise history.<\/span>
\n<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cI\u2019m going to work on my compete this summer,\u201d said Carter. \u201cObviously [I\u2019m] going to build my skills and my game [to be more] dominant next year.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

Carter notes that while the team battled adversity all season long, the \u2018battle and compete\u2019 mentality that the team became so familiar with will fuel the offseason and set them up for a strong start to the 2026-2027 season.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cI know we had a lot of one-goal games,\u201d said Carter. \u201cI think it\u2019s going to be a big summer, putting in the work, we\u2019re going to battle and come out strong.\u201d\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

MOOSE JAW, Sask.<\/b> – In his third season in the WHL, Connor Schmidt took another step in growing his game while being added to the Warriors\u2019 leadership group.<\/span><\/p>\n

Schmidt\u2019s effort on the ice earned him an \u2018A\u2019 just before Christmas.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201c[This offseason I want to] try to build [my game] in a lot of ways,\u201d said Schmidt. \u201c[Maybe] putting on some weight, trying to get faster, and keep working on the little details.\u201d\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Schmidt notes that the foundation the team built this season will be key to taking another step next year.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

MOOSE JAW, Sask.<\/b> – After being scratched in the first game of the year, Landen McFadden proved his value tenfold over the course of the rest of the season.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cLanden\u2019s game really matured this year,\u201d said Head Coach Mark O\u2019Leary. \u201cHis shot can beat goalies from distance and in tight, and he did a great job getting himself in positions to do just that in many big moments throughout the year.\u201d\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

McFadden notched two goals and five points in his season debut, helping to push the team to a 9-7 Home Opener win over the Brandon Wheat Kings.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201c[I came] in with a lot more confidence this year,\u201d said McFadden. \u201cI think last year was a year where I took a step in the offseason to be a guy that wanted to be relied on more.\u201d\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

McFadden ended the season as the team\u2019s top scorer with 32 goals and 68 points, blowing away his previous career high of six goals and 15 points set during his rookie season the year before.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cI want to be a guy that\u2019s relied on in every area of the ice,\u201d said McFadden. \u201cI want to come in and take the younger guys and lead by example, I want them to follow what I do, and I want to win a championship here.\u201d\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

McFadden notes that the season had a lot of highs and a lot of lows, most notably, the most notable low was the result of the final game, where the team fell to the Swift Current Broncos, eliminating them from the playoffs.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cThere wasn\u2019t one guy with a smile on their face [after the last game],\u201d said McFadden. \u201cIt shows that we care, and it shows that we wanted to do something, but we came up short, and hopefully we can change the narrative on that next year.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

MOOSE JAW, Sask. <\/b>– After missing the playoffs by a single point, General Manager Jason Ripplinger says that the season was frustrating.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cWe have to look in the mirror and look at ourselves and think about where we should be better,\u201d said Ripplinger. \u201cOur coaching staff, our scouting staff, we all work hard, but we have to make some better decisions.\u201d\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Ripplinger points to the team\u2019s injury struggles as a negative for the season, but the positive about the number of injuries that the Warriors faced was the development of the team\u2019s rookies and prospect pool.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cThat\u2019s what our league is all about, [it\u2019s] about player development,\u201d said Ripplinger. \u201cThere [were] players on our team this year that got more opportunity [due to the injuries] and they\u2019re better for it.\u201d\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

The Warriors saw nine players make their debuts during the 2026\/2027 season, including 2010-born prospects Dylan Mingo (2025, 41st overall), Kash Elke (2025, 18th overall), and Jett Prpich (2025, 94th overall). Additionally, Colt Carter, Cohen Williams, Gage Nagel, and William Degagne, who made their WHL debuts in previous seasons, embarked on their rookie campaign.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

After finishing with a record of 25-36-5-2, Ripplinger notes that there are some spots on the roster to be filled, including spots vacated by the team\u2019s three graduating players, Ethan Semeniuk, Pavel McKenzie, and Aiden Ziprick. All three of the team\u2019s 20-year-olds were among the team\u2019s top four scorers.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cIt\u2019s going to be a competitive [training camp in the fall],\u201d said Ripplinger. \u201cWe have a lot of players coming up that want the older guys’ spots, so [everyone] is going to have to be ready.\u201d\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

MOOSE JAW, Sask. <\/b>– After an impressive sophomore season, Casey Brown is preparing for another productive offseason heading into his final year of WHL eligibility.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cLast year, coming in, I [was lacking] confidence from not playing,\u201d said Brown. \u201cI had to work on the consistency part for the first half, and in the second half, I think I found that.\u201d\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

After joining the team in November 2024 from Penticton in the BCHL, Brown recorded three goals and eight points in his rookie season. His production in his sophomore season exploded, tallying 22 goals and 38 points.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cCasey took a huge step this year. He found ways to use his best asset of speed to influence games,\u201d said Head Coach Mark O\u2019Leary. \u201cHis production both five-on-five and on the penalty kill makes him very valuable and an important part of any line he plays with.\u201d\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Brown\u2019s impressive season ended on March 20 after leaving the Warriors\u2019 second-last regular-season game with an injury that held him out of what turned out to be the team\u2019s final game the next evening.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cI think a big offseason plays a big factor in the following year,\u201d said Brown. \u201c[There\u2019s time to] get healthy, stronger, faster, bigger and just work on the little [aspects of my game].\u201d\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Brown\u2019s injury late in the season was far from the only injury the team faced this year.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

MOOSE JAW, Sask.<\/b> – After 276 games in the WHL, 166 of those wearing the Moose Jaw crest, graduating player Ethan Semeniuk is moving on to the NCAA.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cIt meant a lot to wear the Warrior logo,\u201d said Semenuk. \u201cMoose Jaw is a second home to me now. I\u2019m sure I\u2019ll be back lots over the course of my lifetime.\u201d\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Semeniuk was acquired from the Vancouver Giants in the offseason of 2023 ahead of the Warriors’ 2024 WHL Championship run.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cFor a coach, you always have those guys that are like swiss-army knives, they fill whatever role you need them to,\u201d said Head Coach Mark O\u2019Leary. \u201cThat\u2019s what makes him so valuable, his ability to play any role that he needs to and, most importantly, to help the team find success.\u201d\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

In his first season with the Warriors, Semeniuk tallied eight goals and 24 points in 50 games played. Each season, Semeniuk bettered himself, and in his overage season, Semeniuk tallied 16 goals and 43 points.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cWe don\u2019t win [the 2024 WHL Championship] without that third line, and he was a big part of that,\u201d said Head Coach Mark O\u2019Leary. \u201c[Now], he\u2019s a guy the coaches can rely on to do the right thing the right way always.\u201d\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

During his time with the Warriors, Semeniuk billeted with teammates Brady Ness, for his first two years, Max Finley, and, this year, Benson Hirst.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201c[Ethan\u2019s] my billet brother, I\u2019ve lived with him for two or three years now,\u201d said Brady Ness. \u201cI\u2019ve spent a lot of time with him and made a lot of good memories. He\u2019s a guy that I look up to; he\u2019s just a great person.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

Now, Semeniuk will test out the waters of college hockey, heading south of the border to Sacred Heart University in Fairfield, Connecticut.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cI had the opportunity to talk to the coaching staff quite a bit before I ended up committing there,\u201d said Semeniuk. \u201cThe facility is incredible, and I\u2019m looking forward to getting to see it in person.\u201d\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n
